Sacrality, or the sacred, is how we experience the incomprehensibility of paradox.
Origin
On the Originary Scene, significance and sacrality are equivalent. The significance of the central object is experienced not as conferred by the sign but as its motivation, as independent of one's will. This experience can be described as sacral compulsion: the central object compelled the participants on the scene to defer appropriation through the sign. Paradox is experienced on the originary scene in that the central object is inaccessible, existing in "another world," yet physically proximate and, in principle, appropriable.
